Hebrew

Hebrew, the language of the Bible, has a rich history dating back to the tenth century BCE. Although its usage has varied over the centuries, Modern Hebrew is now an official language of the state of Israel.

The Hebrew program provides individual attention and guidance by experienced professors. Students engage with Hebrew language and Israeli culture through videos, role-playing, music and interactive games. The following Hebrew classes fulfill the University of San Francisco’s foreign-language requirement:
